    RETROSPECTIVE REVIEW: Hector Bizerk @ West Of The Moon

    Scottish hip hop was the focus in Ayr on February 22nd, a sentence I never thought I’d ever have to type in my career as a journalist (first time for everything, eh?). Having supported some genre heavyweights like Wu-Tang Clan and MF DOOM, Hector Bizerk were all set to take The West Of The Moon by…
